This course is aimed for those new to Druidry, and can also serve as a good refresher for those who have walked the Druid path for many years. It is based on the teachings we provide at Druid College, condensed down to an introduction to Druidry and offered alongside guidance provided by both tutors. This course is about reweaving that connection, our connection to the land, the ancestors, and the gods. It is about learning the native spirituality of these British Isles, and exploring how they work in the wider world. As an introduction into the path that is Druidry, it focuses on our relationship to the land, the ancestors, the gods and the spirits of place.

What you get out of Druid learning is what you put into it. There is no room for passivity; Druidry is very much an active path. No one can do it for you. You must search out the awen, the inspiration yourself. Teachers may act as guides, priests may work as celebrants in ritual, but they do not take the place of active learning on the individual level. No one can do it for you.

So we actively encourage you to take those first steps along the path, and to hold the intention of your learning close to your heart as your journey. Know that the work that you put in will reap benefits, for yourself, your own sense of well-being and for the earth as a whole. For we are all part of the great tapestry of life.

Hi Sue! Homework for all of our courses is for the learner’s benefit, so it is up to them whether or not they would like feedback on the work that they do. We don’t require stuff to be handed in, per se, but we do require an effort to be made regarding the work. People can hand in as little or as much as they please, and also contact the tutors regarding anything else on the course that they wish. With this course, you get what you put in 🙂
